Sunday, Dec. 7 -- Join us for the traditional Santa Rosa Sunrise Rotary Club Holiday Historical Walk -- this time in Central Healdsburg. This carries on our tradition of guided urban walks for the holidays each December -- in past years we have had historic walks in central Santa Rosa, downtown Petaluma, the City of Napa, Sonoma State University, the City of Sonoma, Roseland neighborhood and more.

Rating & Description: Easy Walk. The Healdsburg Holiday Historical Walk is less than a mile on flat, downtown Healdsburg streets, starting at 10:00am from the Harmon Heald Guest House at 227 Healdsburg Avenue in Healdsburg. Our guide from Healdsburg Historical Walking Tour will regale us with stories of Healdsburg pioneers as we pass historical buildings on our route. Healdsburg will be bedecked in festive holiday decorations throughout our walk.

Lunch After the Walk: The walk will end about 11:45am at Costeaux Bakery at 417 Healdsburg Avenue. Costeaux is owned Will Seppi, who is a member of Healdsburg Sunrise Rotary. We will sit outside with heaters, weather-permitting, inside otherwise. We will order off the menu.
